I wouldnt personally, they wear out quite fast on normal roads.

Gavin, why are the rose joints so cheap, a descent isnt much more expensive.
I put some better ones in mine and they have been on the car for about 4 years now

I seriously doubt it!

How many miles you done on them Paul? I see some race teams change them at every race, be interesting to get a few opinions.

Just like Paul I removed the std ones straight in the bin. I got some from a local bearing suppliers I have them on two racers at the min and I have had no problems after a full season I think they where 40 euros each. If anyone wants the part number send me a pm, I’m not going to post it up for obvious reasons.
regards,
Paul.

Mine did about 4000 odd miles and Im changing them now just because theyre a bit grubby.

Carl, I cant believe I got that wrong, its usually me picking other people up on that.

I seriously doubt it!
